In spite of Roosevelt's great popularity, these attempts were uniformly unsuccessful. The situation in Missouri is slightly different. Missouri is Truman's home state. Viewed technically, he is therefore not strictly "butting in." It will bo remembered, how ever, that Mr. Roosevelt, in his "purge" period, was never able to defeat even Representative Fish, from his own state of New Yprk. THE principle Involved is rather important. It is this: Shall ONE branch of our gov ernment be permitted to domin ate the OTHER branches? ... BINDER the constitution, our U government has three branches the legislative (con gress), the executive (the Presi dent) and the Judicial (the courts). These three branches of government were planned by the founding futhers to be EQUAL and to act as checks and balances upon each other. In the best years of our his tory thb years in which the United States of America was growing up from a weak little na tion to a great and powerful country universally respected be cause of its uniquely successful concept of FREEDOM OF THE INDIVIDUAL these checks and billunces WORKED. The ideal of, (he founding fath ers prevailed, and NO ONE branch of government was able to assert dominance over the other branches. WE are now witnessling a STRUGGLE FOR 1'OWER among ALL THREE of the branches of our federal govern ment. The President strives to make congress subservient to his will. Congress resists, and seeks to as sort its power over the President. In recent years, the supreme court has sought to assert its power OVER DOTH of the others. Especially over congress. THE founding fathers -probably the ablest set of men who ever guided the destinies of n new nation -were intimately fa miliar with the abuses through out all history of TOO MUCH POWER in one set of hands. It was to PREVENT too much power from falling into one set of hands in America that they de vised this set of checks and bal ances. Their wisdom was great, and their purposes were pure. To the wisdom of their acts and the pur ity of- their motives we owe this American way of life which no American in full possession of his senses would exchange for any other way of life on earth. THIS writer knows personally neither Representative Slaugh ter, of Missouri, nor Candidate Axtell, who is running against him. But if Representative Slaugh ter's only fault Is that lie lias been pecrsistcntly against what President Truman wants, this writer hopes the President's at tempt to unseat him will fail. : This country will be a better country for our children to live in if congress isn't dominated by the President, if the President Isn't dominated by congress and II neither the President nor con gress is .dominated by the su preme court. Too much power in any one set oi hands is DANGEROUS. ' AN EXAMPLE OF HARMONY By CHARLES V. STANTON The sort of cooperation supporting Douglas County com munities through the troublesome period of unprecedented growth and expansion was demonstrated Saturday at Drain. Sponsored by A. F. of L. members, crews of the several mills in that area donated a full day's labor to the com munity's "Living Memorial" fund, while the companies by which the workmen are employed, added their entire pro ceeds from the day's labor. Conceived during the war as a memorial to its many men and women in military service, a park, playground, swim ming pool and civic recreational center is under construction by residents of Drain and the surrounding area. A large tract of land adjoining the high school has been procured and already has been substantially improved. The park is being used for community gatherings and recrea tion. Permanent installations are being made. A swimming pool is in prospect, together with tennis courts, play equip ment, etc. This Living Memorial is a big undertaking for a com munity the size of Drain. The project will involve a great deal of expense and much hard work; but the residents of the Drain area are not deterred by difficulties. They turned out en masse to improve the grounds. They have reached into their pockets for money for construction. Now, laboring men, who ordinarily do not have money for donation purposes, voluntarily are giving their most valued possession, the work of their hands, sacrificing a full day's pay, as their measure of cooperation in the worthy enter prise. And we'll wager mill records will show it to be one of the most productive days in the community's industrial history. And while laborers are devoting their most valued pos sessipn to community welfare, management, in hearty and willing cooperation, is donating all of its profits. Thus we have a harmonious devotion of labor and management in a moat commendable enterprise, honoring the patriotic sacri fice of a segment of Douglas County's population. No more appropriate tribute could be paid by any community, we be lieve, than the type of living memorial projected at Drain. Cut wo are particularly intrigued by the cooperative gift of labor and management. Drain is a small place, as we measure community life. Cut if it is possible for labor and management to combine efforts for human betterment in Drain, when patriotically moti vated, it is equally possible, if the spiritual inspiration couM be gained, to achieve equal harmony for the welfare of the country as a whole. There can be neither selfishness nor greed in a project such as that in which Drain citizens are associated. If self ishness and greed could be eliminated, even temporarily, in our national situation, and a determination to achieve our aims of reconversion and economic security reached with equal sincerity by labor and management, our troubles would quickly end. We need to accomplish this purpose only the same patriotic spirit which guides participants in the Drain project. The fact that it can be done at Drain, for the sake of a tribute to its honored veterans, is indication that it could bo accomplished nationally, given the necessary measure of inspiration. The mill workers, mill owners and the Drain citizenry, in general, deserve commendation for the energy and coopera tion devoted to their most worthy project.

Seals, Oaksjied r At Top Rung of Coast League (By the Associated Press) It was still San Francisco at the toD of the Pacific Coast Leapue todav no matter how con fused baseball fans may have been for awhile yesterday. While the Seals were dropping their first game, 5 to 4 to Holly wood, the Oakland Oaks were shutting out Los Angeles 1 to 0 to cain the league leadership. But the Oaks' tenure was short lived. They dropped the second game to the Angels, 7 to 3, and the Seals walloped Hollywood 9 to 3 to go back into their pre carious half-ame lead. The two-hit pitching of Frank Shea for Oakland shaded a beau tiful three-hit job by Red Lynn of the Angels and spelled the Acorns' victory in the first game. In the second, Los Angeles ex ploded against Pipoen for seven runs in the fourth Inning and won. 7 to 3. The powerful bat of Unser, who smacked two home runs, gave Hollywood its victory over the Seals in the opener. Melton, back ed by 11 hits, pitched the Seals back into the league lead in the ni"htcap. Sactos Win Twice Sacramenot alone managed to come unscathed through both ends of the Sunday double fea tures. The Solons defeated San Diego 3 to 1 in the opener, al though outhit 7 to 5. Staley was the winning pitcher. Behind the seven-hit hurling of Freitas, the Solons captured the nightcap, 4 to 3. Seattle and Portland split. The Rainiers won the opening slug fest 11 to 9, pounding three Port land pitchers for 20 hits. The Beavers picked uo a mere 14 off three Seattle pitchers. Right Fielder Reich's homer In the sixth inning gave Portland the nightcap win, 3 to 2, and the series, five games to two. Oakland and San Francisco both won their Saturday games, the Oaks edging out Los Angeles 4 to 3 and the Seals stopping Hollywood 6 to 1. San Diego and Sacramento went 12 innings be fore the Padres won, 4 to 0. Port land defeated Seattle 3 to 1. Viams' Batting Gives Bosox Twp Wins Over Browns (By the Associated Press), Thumping Teddy Williams 'is baseball's man of the hour al most certain to be named most valuable player in the American League if the Boston Red Sox cop the big prize. Adding 11 points to his batting average with one afternoon's ef fort on seven hits in nine times at bat, the sharp-eyed slugger Is tops' in batting at .365 and ranks first in runs scored, runs batted in, total hits and home runs. It's a good thing he never took up base stealing. Williams hit for the cycle In yesterday's second game triumph over St. Louis 7-4, topping a sin gle, double; and triple with his 27th homo run. A double and a brace of singles by Williams drove in one of the runs Ferris needed to record his liitli victory of the season by a 50 score. Shirley and Fannin were the Brownie losers who felt the full force of Williams' slug ging afternoon. N'ow Hi games out front with 64 games to play, the Sox ap pear a certain bet to earn the pennant if they can manage a .aOO pace. Yanks Blasted by Chisox Just when the Yankees were beginning to make some menac ing gestures with five straight victories, they collapsed under an eight-run inning engineered by the White Sox in the second game. Bevens had hurled and batted the home club to a 3-2 opening nod with his two-run homer off Lopat but Chicago's hitters climbed all over starter ("ettel and Page and Wade for their biggest inning of the year and a 9-3 verdict. Detroit blew a chance to pick up ground on New York by losing to the Philadelphia A's 4-3 In the first of two. Even Grecnhcrg's 23rd homer with a man on couldn't save the issue. The world champs got even In the nightcap, slugging Harris and two succes sors for an 11-7 edge. Washington edged out Cleve land twice, 21 and 7-5, although the Tribe rushed Feller to the, rescue in the finale. Cards, Dodgers Tied St. Louis and Brooklyn con tinued to run neck and peck in the National, winding up respec tive home stands and road trips all even with 53-34 records. Pollett threw a four-hitter at the Boston Braves in the first game but needed Musial's two run homer to defeat Niggeling, 21; Dusak's circuit clout with two on eased Brecheen's task In the 8-4 second tilt triumph. Lombardi and Behrman re corded wins over Pittsburgh as the Dodgers continued to show encouraging signs of snapping out of their slump, Lombardi blanked the Bucs with three hits, the best mound job of the day, 3 0, but Behrman required some bullpen help from Gregg and an inside-the-park homer by Furillo with a. man on to sink the Pirates, 6-5. Chicago could do no beter than split with the Phillies. Borowy finally cast off his miseries and worked a complete game, the first since May 5, in the 3-0 open er. Raffensberger handed Pas seau his fifth straight setback in the 4-2 second tilt. After Blackwell had white washed New York with five hits, 510, in the curetain raiser, the Cincinnati Reds succumbed to the slants of Gee, making his first start after a ' year's retirement Gee picked up a 2-1 triumph on homers by Marshall and Warren. Golfers Vie In Best Ball Tourney Fourteen two-man teams com peted in a best-ball tournament at the Roseburg Country Club Sunday, July 21, with Charlie Kash and Ward Cummings turn ing in a two unaer par 70 lor the low gross score of the day. The low net event ended in a dead heat between the three teams of Bill Courier and Clem Howard, Kenenth and George Quine, and Vern Martin and Jack Saling, all with net scores of 64. Special prizes were won by Gene McElroy, long drive on No. 5, and close to the pin on No. 8; Charley Kash, long drive on No. 6, and Joe Perrault, close to the pin on No. 3. Wednesday attractions for men golfers will include nine hole sweepstakes in the afternoon, food and drinks served In the evening by Bob Simmons, pre sentation of spring handicap trophies, -and card games. Mexicans to Hold Free Methodist Service A group of five Mexican Chris tian workers will hold a special service at the Free Methodist church in West Roseburg this evening at 8 o'clock. Pastor L. N. Otis, reports. '' The public is cordially invited to attend this special service. Vol. VIII, No. 26 Published Weekly by the Douglas County Flour Milt, Mfgrs. of Umpqu and Sunrise Poultry and Dairy Feeds. July 22, 1946. Comes thf Dawn. For the poultryman, the tur key grower and the dairyman the sun Is rising again. There may be ouite a few clouds for a time, and we may even have a quite heavy "high fog." But at least, it appears that the long night Is over. Stocks of feed grains as well as bread grains were at the lowest levels on July 1st for many, many years. But in sDite Df that, there was more new wheat In storage on Julv 1st than ever before. Just a promise of the bountiful harvest now be ing gathered, or to be gathered later this year. These bumper crops will fill the granaries of the country again, and once more nrove that there is no country In the world like Amer ica. Indications now are that the 1946 corn crop may make an all-time record, the present fore cast being three and a third billion bushels. Wheat harvest will exceed a billion bushels, mly slightly less than last year's, record- breaker. Other grain crops will also be near records. Canada expects 400 mil lion bushels of wheat, also a record. In addition, foreign crops have improved Immense ly, so the need for exporting from America will likely be much less than earlier antici pated. With much more feed in sight, there seems to be less in the way of poultry and live stock to cat the coming har vest. So that considering all ooints, it seems safe to predict that the tide has turned. A Word 0f Warning. As supply begins to Improve, after such a long struggle to get enough feed, there will be a tendency to buy ahead, and store against possible recurring shortages. Grain prices, as well as other prices which have been controlled, have skyrocketed. Feed mixers have been hardest hit, and have paid whatever was askpd to get ingredients. But they are buying only from hand to mouth, since it is al most a cinch that prices will drop. In fact, prices have already dropped on many items. That is whv we urge everyone to re frain from storing, or to use an ugly word, "hoarding" any feed right now. With prospects for more feed than we have seen since the war began, and with less animal units to eat it, a grower might easily find him self all stocked up with a lot of high priced feed, growing stale and losing value, while his neighbor will be buying fresh feed, better feed, and for a lot less money. So be good to your self, be wise, and save money. Gas and Liquor. A gallon of gas and a pint of gin, And, oh! what a mess we found them in! The car was a pile of twisted tin; Now the grass grows green above his chin. S-anicoat. A lot of people are findin" how good this new product "SANICOAT" Is. Used in dairy barns, poultry houses, It serves several purposes. It aids sanita tion, prevents flies and other in sects, and increases and saves fertilizer values. Goes five times as far as lime. Yes, we have it. And a, bier sprayer to put it on with. Such Taking Ways. "Mom, didn't you say Babv has vour eyes and Daddy's nose?" "Yes. Hubert." "Well, he's doinf all right. He's got Grampaw's teeth now." About Green Feed. We do a deal of harping on green feed at the mill. Usually we are telling you to plant something your Dirds or ani mals can graze off. It saves you from buving a lot of our high -iriced feed, and the stuff still grows fine on it. Right now, our feeds look greener than they ever did be fore. It seems to suit . most folks, but we have had one or two complaints: "Too much al falfa in Umpqua Feed this year." So here is the why of it. ihe Douglas County Flour Mill has always made the very best feed it could with what we could get. We don't need to tell old timers that, and newcomers find it out auickly. We were one of the very first feed companies to use alfalfa greens in poultry or dairy feeds. we used oy at iirst, ana we used it because alfalfa had al ready been proved an excellent ingredient in poultry feeds. We were cautioned in those days not to use more than 5 on ac count of coloring the volks too highly. But for some turkey growers who didn t have such hot pastures in late summer,,we, doubled the dose of alfalfa. It worked swell. We have been Increasing the use of alfalfa right along. We do this because alfalfa has al most every known vitamin and nutrient factor required by poultry, as well as other animal organisms. It is als6 high in proteins, and one of the best sources of minerals. In other words, it is a wpnderful feed in gredient. Last year we used more than ever before, but had to drop back to less and sometimes omit it entirely, because it was not available. This year, alfalfa has been available, quality has been good, and we have used it at the rates we wanted to use it last year. . Of course the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Ump qua 1946 mashes have done a swell job, even in spite of our being forced to leave out some things we would have liked to use. Where grain has been available chlx and turx have made exceptional growth. For instance, Mr. MacDonald of Mel rose just told us of selling a bunch of 31 months old cock erels that weighed 4-lb. aver age. Yep, alfalfa is OK, and we will use lots of it in future. Quick Thinking. Cop: "Why didn't you stop back there when I yelled at you?" Driver (with great presence of mind): "I thought you said 'Hello, Senator'." Cop: "Well, Senator, I was just going to warn you to Iook out for those dumb cops over in Smithboro." Hints for Profits. Sick, diseased or parasite in fested poultry does not pay. At the Flour Mill we have most of the things necessary to keep your birds healthy and profit able. Iotein Mash, P. T. Z. Mash, Wormer & Salts Mash, Lee's Gizzard Pills, Miket worm pills, and other remedies. Not to mention sprays for lice, mites, flies and other pests. As to prices, the Mill has always giv en you the most value for your money. Barber: "Do you know your hair will soon be gray if it keens on?" Customer: "I don't mind the color, as long as it keeps on." The average driver will risk inything to protect his right-of-way, even his life, if necessary. And gamblers often lose. One Over Linhlly.
